As Koji noted, there is a long-term (Adobe-sponsored) project underway
with the aim of implementing this in LaTeX, see for instance
https://www.latex-project.org/news/2024/07/08/tagging/

They got quite far already, so it is usable, but still yet for a
restricted number of classes ans packages.

In any case, LyX supports what LaTeX supports. As mentioned in my other
mail to this thread, we have implemented a widget to enter the
necessary \DocumentMetadata (in raw form) to LyX 2.4.

HTH,
